This course is taught by various members of the program faculty. Each version of the course has its own subtitle, some being offered one time only while others are repeated and may evolve into regular courses with their own course number and title. This is an appropriate selection for upper-level undergraduate students.

Topic Description: This special topics course is designed for both undergraduate students (Community Action and Social Change Minor) and graduate MSW students to expand their understanding of self and collective care as critical tools for social justice work. Students will practice the skills of self-awareness, self-regulation, stress management, self-compassion, empathy, and mindful communication to cultivate well-being and protect against burnout, compassion fatigue, and secondary trauma.

This course exposes students to anti-racist, anti-oppressive, and anti-capitalist frameworks of self and collective care and orients students toward an embodiment of healing justice. It is designed to prepare students to be healthy, effective, and sustainable agents of change.
